Weight fluctuations can be fun
Exercise March 5th, 2009Today’s been pretty relaxed. Went to the gym like the good girl I am. Today was weights and I am really enjoying it, specially because I do like 15 reps for 30 seconds and rest for 2 mins and start again. So by the end of it I just don’t feel like I have exercised. But apparently I am, or at least that’s what the trainer’s assured me.
My extra two pounds of yesterday has dropped as miraculously as it appeared. I kind of like such fluctuations. The joy of seeing your weight drop after a day of sheer frustration is something else. And don’t I just sound like a complete masochist. 
Weight: 172 pounds
Exercise: 10 mins elliptical + 45 mins strength training + 5 mins stretches + 15 min walk to gym

I feel the same way about fluctuations. Everyone always tells me DONT weigh yourself more than once a day, and DONT weigh yourself more than twice a week, but I do anyways.. I’m especially guilty of weighing myself right before I go to bed since I know the number will most likely be lower in the morning when I wake up.

I don’t mind weight fluctuations when they’re on their way down but that unexpected gain still makes me mad. Good for you for having such a healthy attitude toward it.

I will always weigh myself every day, I’ve resigned myself to it and I accept the fluctuations. Most of the time the UPs amuse me (like the one this morning). I really, really like the DOWNs though!
Wow you look great in the picture!! (What we can see of you, heheh!) I’m so glad you got the picture to work! =D
